    Rubber melting

    What is the deal. Now the driver side is doing it. I have a 2001 ford truck and 68 Mustang that was totally rebuilt in 1991. Neither one of these has this issue. WTF. To top it all off now the rear hatch latch is doing it again.

    Rubber melting

    Rubber melting

    I only wash the car twice per year if that. You live in the country and on a gravel road what is the point when it gets dirty just driving it once. Using just regular auto soap just does not cut the grime when you don't wash it that often. Plus I do not garage it. I will try and get a few...

    Rubber melting

    I have a 2007 Sport 4Runner. I have owned it since it was new. I have already replaced the rear hatch switch due to the rubber melting. Now the rubber around the windows are starting to melt as well. It sits outside and I do not use any special cleaners on the car. The wife takes it thru...
